Jailkit User

Hi,
Just created a jailkit user. The first one I've probably made and when I tried to SSH to it I kept getting disconnected after the last login message. Auth.log kept saying that bin,etc,usr, etc weren't own by user 0 and the jail wasn't safe. Once I chown'd all the mentioned directories to root I could then login with no issues. Is this a bug or a misconfiguration on my part?
